Placeholders are a way to modify external links on Cards/End Screens and include the video id and template name so that you can track click-through rates and analytics on your own website as far as who is clicking on your YouTube Cards/End Screens.

We currently offer placeholders for Video Id and Template Name

You MUST use one of the following two formats (note: capitalization does not matter).

((youtubevideoid)) or {videoid}

((templatename)) or {template}


might get converted to something like....

for each Card/End Screen that it's copied to where {videoid} gets replaced with the video id of the video being copied to and ((templatename)) gets replaced by the name you've given the Card Template in TubeBuddy.
